<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>This book considers how ideas about blackness travel across the Americas via migration, and media, cultural, and political exchanges. It examines African-descended populations in Latin America and Afro-Latin@s in the United States in order to explore questions of black identity and representation, transnationalism, and diaspora. Afro-Latin@s in Movement explores diverse topics--from popular music to sports to political organizing--to consider the ways that blackness is imagined, embodied, and understood across the Americas.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Introduction: Theorizing Afrolatinidades Petra R.
